In respect of a possible AVMSD revision, Deutsche Telekom AG (DTAG) holds that the country-of-origin principle should be strengthened by -- foreseeing higher levels of harmonization in the Directive, -- while decisively reducing Member States leeway to issue stricter or more detailed rules in the fields already coordinated through EU legislation; where Member States opt to establish rules on public-value services…

Deutsche Telekom AG welcomes the Commission's initiative to revise and expand the eIDAS regulation. It favors a combination of the three described options. The EUid should go far beyond the current approach and enable its use in both the public and the private sector. In contrast to today's private approaches, the EUid must be available to all citizens.

On a general note, Deutsche Telekom welcomes the revision of the Guidelines as a step in the right direction towards modernising the EU Merger Control Framework. However, this is insufficient to meet President von der Leyen´s prospect of new approach to competition policy, better geared to our common goals and more supportive of companies scaling up as set out in her Political Guidelines.

The EC adopted a legislative proposal amending the Roaming Regulation. It extends and amends many of Regulation´s material provisions, first and foremost wholesale caps. It introduces the obligation for network operators to offer end customers roaming services under the “same conditions as … domestically, in particular in terms of quality of service” as well as the obligation to offer other network operators access…

No reduction of Wholesale rates. We are convinced that even if the Commission decides to keep wholesale regulation, the caps should stay at the 2022 level and not be further reduced. The information gathered by the Commission and BEREC throughout the last years clearly shows that commercially agreed discounts bring WS rates to significantly below the regulated caps.
